Loeb pulls away on Acropolis Rally

Sebastien Loeb is pulling away in the Acropolis Rally lead after Citroen stepped up its pace on the second of Friday's three loops of stages in Greece. The world champion was a close second to team-mate Mikko Hirvonen on SS5, then won SS6, giving him a 10-second outright lead over Jari-Matti Latvala, who was not happy with his Ford's handling on either stage. After his flurry at the end of the first loop, Petter Solberg has fallen back to fourth again, damaging his Ford in an impact with a rock after a crest on stage six.
